Thanks for watching!
Have you thought to color-code the white emus with leg bands? That could help tell which is which without all the guesswork!
This is exactly what I was going to say!

Love seeing how you accept the advice from Eli. It was a great idea and it worked ! And so the wait begins for Emu Hatch 2024 !
Oh exciting ! I love the way you praise the kids by saying their name and then "good job" it must make them feel so good that they are helping however simple the task.
And Bella was being so sweet and pretty. It is nice to see that.
Absolutely 👍
Yay I'm early. I sure hope the emu eggs work out this time! Also, if you wanna do a hatching project I would recommend you try Serama chickens. They are the world's smallest chickens and very friendly.
I have 7 Serama chickens. they love being near or seeing any baby chickens. They will just closely watch the babies eat their food or drink or do whatever. I recently added new Brahma chickens and the Seramas LOVE them!!! Every night when all the chickens gather everyone back to the coop, I always see them cuddling together every single night😭❤I also had one of my serama hens go broody this January. She had 4 babies!!! First time for her! The other chickens fell in love with them.
Even the roosters❤
@Duckieee64 Yea mine go broody a lot and they are great mothers.
Think they've tried seramas and they also have sebrights (second smallest in the world) with some being smaller than seramas
Hey Birb what is up
@@Chikyboy617 Oh hi. Lol
Get a marker that's used to see if rams are tipping ewe's or the marker to see if cows are bulling and you'll see if your female is marked.
I was unaware of this method for determining mounting. Great idea; much easier than watching hours of motion sensor videos. And the deed may take place out of camera range anyway.
@@BiterAvid ya it's very easy, if you have a few males and do them different colours you'll know what male is mounting also. There is a harness for a ram and a chin ball for a bull that I am sure can be changed a bit to work for these.
For sheep, we rubbed a paint like grease on the chest of the ram by hand. When./ if it mounts a female it leaves the paint grease on the back of the ewes.
The chicken food POV was amazing
Thanks 😊
Also the ducks bathing!
@@whitehouseonthehill Your welcome! You probaby won't reply to this, but what are your thoughts on keeping quail? I think they would be a great addition to your farm!
Your boys are so helpful and mature working with the farm animals. You had been great parents for them! Keep it up!
I know this video is mainly about the emus, but I just want to say that all your birds are looking beautiful and happy! Really hope the new breeding season works out for the emus though. It seems like they're starting to figure things out now and you've learned a lot from last year too, so fingers crossed! 😁🤞
I’ve been waiting for what feels like forever for another video. Love you guys so much🥰❤️
Been working on this one for awhile
GLAD TO SEE YOU BRING IN THE EGGS INDOORS FOR THE HATCHING.....Thanks y'all so much and God Blessing to y'all 👍

My father raised Cockatoos and while he wanted the birds to nest Hatch, the bigger the bird the less he liked the success rate doing so. I noticed the snakes are the same, it's just harder for raised animals to do a good job when they are bigger and it helps the parent animals recover better and quicker so don't worry too much if that ends up your results too.
I KNEW IT! Bamboo was the Alpha male from before. The new area they're in is a new territory hence why Bamboo was trying to assert his dominance when they're all in the horse field. That's why Bamboo was depressed cause he lost the battle of dominance in that area. That's why he was trying to go back to his area cause he knows that its his own territory. You guys should just leave Bamboo along with Peakaboo alone on that Emu yard and the rest are just in the horse yard
The time lapse of you hanging the camera was both adorable and amusing.
😂
"This Bert, for the other Bert." 😂 That killed me, I understand that it's difficult to tell them apart and Jake calling them each Bert is just hilarious. There have been so many times I've worked with horses and some are soooo similar looking, almost twin like, it's hard to tell them apart. Hence why we add tags of their mama's name on the halters to help with that, even after weaning.
😂
So beautiful to see the white peafowl ❤
while watching I had a thought. If the male emu don't get along and Bamboo is feeling broody, perhaps take some of the eggs to the other shed and see if he's okay with sitting on them over there and leave the "breeding" pair in the other part. I think the not sitting on the eggs is the part that is making him sad and off his food. Perhaps I'm wrong but just a thought. Thanks for the great content. Love every minute of it
I'm so excited for you all!
Thanks!
I still remember when bamboo the emu when he was a baby in 2019
With Bert and Ernie, I wonder if you could dye a couple of their feathers to ID them or .... can emu's wear collars, scarfs or ankle band. (wrote mid watch but pillow case was good idea) Makes me wonder if they can be lead with a leash like a dog or by treats. Don't know if they go crazy over some fruit or something. 4:37 kind of fun chicken eating asmr lol. Also wonder if they don't hatch if you find a way to drain them by maybe drilling a hole on either end and hang them by making a wire hanger over the compost for if they are smelly so you don't have to blow them out, just probably need to poke a long needle in there and mix it around to break the yolk, then you can save the shell and the kids could maybe paint them for Easter.
You should probably mark your emus especially the white ones you know which one Bert
Your B role of the chickens and ducks is so calming to watch! ❤
Ahh the years go by so fast watching you guys feels like yesterday you got your first cow and it feels like a week ago since you got little bamboo… absolutely cant wait for all the stuff this year especially the Avery just seeing the ducks and peafowl made me so excited, much love to all of you and i hope this year is going to be one of the best yet❤❤❤❤
😊
Praying for your Emu eggs, will hatch!
your marker 9's are perfect IMO. I love the animal care your family takes! Thank you for some awesome content!
So, a ferret visited me and bassically destroyed my flock. I had Silkies, Araucana, Cochinchina dwarf and Cochinchina frizzled. So this year i have to start all over again, that's why i could use a new incubator. Who knows, maybe i'll get some luck this time. Keep up the great work you guys are doing! 🙏🏻
Yay! I'm overjoyed to see your video today. Your still my favorite videos on you tube. God bless you all for sharing your amazing life and family with us. It feeds my soul to see such productive team work and family togetherness where you are all included and happy and healthy. Beautiful life you have. Thank you for sharing with us.
This is so exciting to have the giant Emu eggs again keeping🫰🏻for success in February. Love all your videos 😅👩🏻🦳California here.❤
I love the "bird's eye" view! I really enjoy your videos. ❤
Thank you so much!
I’m obsessed with your pied peacock. It is GORGEOUS!!!! 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵
Thanks 😊
That smile was so cute at the end
I would love, love, love, a baby Bamboo! He was such a cutie when you guys had him in the house.
Yay! A sneak peak at the mandarins! Its been a while. Can't wait til they move down to the aviary. :)
Maybe you can get some kind of leg bands on Ernie & Bert so that you can tell them apart.
You: what’s up
Kid: Good
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The birds & kids are adorable!
Here's hoping for a successful hatch! that will be fabulous. I hope Bamboo finally figures out mating!
I breed snakes and they have very thin leathery shells and we mark on them all the time. Never have had any issues with it.
Exciting! I hope this year sticks! Also hope the other two in the pasture attempt as well, it would be cool to see. 2 months till we know! Hope more eggs are added to incubator.
I know this is about Emu's but my god your kiddos are growing up so fast!! I swear it was just yesterday he just toddling around with the chicks 😭😭
At 4.30, I thought my brain was glitching when Bamboo stuck his head through the fence. Good luck with the eggs, hopefully this year will be blessed with emu chicks at last
maybe bamboo is already the father, might also be the reason why she layed early, n u didnt need the other males at all, cause u also see bamboo be dominating n fighting back.
NEWBIE!!! My first video and I already love your farm and family ❤
Welcome!!
As always love watching your videos and the family. God bless.
So exciting. The hard work you do is incredible.
So eggcited about this years potential. God bless!🌱🌾🐣
Good luck with the emu eggs! Hopefully some will hatch! 🤞
How exciting! Best of luck to you and the emus for a successful clutch this year!!!
Im so happy for you guys!, After all these years!!

Happy new year guys .
2 weeks of wait for new video feels like 2 years!! You guys are doing amazing
Bamboo definitely is In love… with you Jake
4:20 the stare 💀
Happy hatching.
Good luck!! Now we wait
Nice video 👍🏼
Hey love your videos
Hope the eggs work out and this footage becomes part of educational history
Good luck with the emu eggs! Hopefully, you will have some luck and have some hatch.
Bella is so pretty. Love your mandarin ducks.
Love your videos saludos
There is a reptile UA-camr who uses markers on all her reptile eggs which are sometimes thinner and more rubbery than bird eggs. They have never had a problem with anything seeping through the eggs
I would love to see serama chickens! Those little guys are so cute!!!
You can buy non toxic animal paint to see if bert or bamboo are actually fertilizing. You should be able to find some sheep paint at you local feed store. For sheep, you spray paint the ewe on the back and you can tell if the ram is breeding because he will smear the paint when mounting. I imagine it would work similarly for the emus, and would take the guess work out of it. Also means you don't have to be trying to monitor 24/7.
Might work - the males run at each other as well and might transfer that way as well
13:00 bamboo is so funny 😂
Isaiah and Bella’s blue eyes are so beautiful! Fingers and toes crossed for the emus!
I'm crossing my fingers for this. Hope you have a successful hatch
I’ve been waiting for this video 😊
the ducks are sooooo funny🤣🤣🤣
Wonderful development! Tricky stuff figuring out the mating processes of the emus. Good Peekaboo! If both the male's want to sit on the eggs, can you make a nest for each of them? Wouldn't it be wonderful if Bamboo actually paired up with Peekaboo?
Yes, they each took some of the eggs last year to sit on.
hope yall the best in this set because last time it wasnt so good
You should keep then
I saw someone else with emus taking one of the first eggs and breaking them carefully to see if they are fertilized or not. you can see like a bullseye on the yolk like you do with fertilized chicken eggs.
they will lay more eggs. and I know it sucks to not give a chance to the one you crack if it is fertilized, but if it isn't you can get your emus to not waste their energy on unfertilized eggs...
Yeah, but maybe that one isn’t fertilized and the eggs after that could be if there is breeding going on, so that’s not a perfect system.
Wishing much good luck with emu babies to come this year. Wonder if the other female may try to lay eggs this year?
I just started the video. So happy to see emu eggs again! Maybe sacrifice one egg to check the inside of it? Like with chickens you should probably be able to tell if they’re getting fertilized 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
No dont sacrifice any its for no reason..time will tell... be patient
1 thing here. ask your self this. what is Bamboo is mating with Peekaboo. & you just have not seen it at all. You need to give Bamboo & Peekaboo a chance first.
GIVE BAMBOO THE CHANCE TO BE A FATHER FIRST. I FEEL HE MAY HAVE MATURED.
i think so too. maybe bamboos already the father, might also be the reason why she layed early, n he didnt need the other males at all, cause u also see bamboo be dominating n fighting back.
How exciting, I pray the emus eggs with be successful and you guys will have babies...How exciting, Good luck and lots of Prayers for successfully healthy babies of Emus❤🙏❤
At the One-N-Only White House On The Hill in Missouri!!!
❤❤Take care,God bless 🙌 each of you, and again Good Luck!!
Last time I watched was when they first got the emus
To help tell the boys apart you can put something on their leg scene they are not growing it won't be to tight
Hope round two produces some Emu chicks for you guys!!
I haven’t watched the whole video yet, but have you thought of putting sheep marking spray/powder/crayon on her rump so that you can see if someone bred her (and who)
Trim feathers from their vent. ❤
Just a suggestion - why don't you put a band around one of the white emu's legs? Then you can decide if that will be Bert or Ernie and then you track which white male is the better breeder, etc.
This is so cool
Good luck see you next time.
I hope this time you bring some of the emu eggs in for incubation. Would be nice if the emus hatched some but doesn’t look very hopeful. I’ll cross my fingers for you 🤞
You need to get a cattle panel or some board to walk behind them to direct them. It will be easier.
Nail polish stays on the egg BEAUTIFULLY
If you have the right mail this time that you want to help hatch the eggs, could you maybe put a zip tie loose enough around his leg or his ankle so you know it’s him
Man Bamboo is on you like white on rice 😂
iam looking forward for the aviary.. hope you give us and update ❤❤❤❤ watching from philippines
Good luck 🤞
Happy New Year!!!!!! ❤🤞 finally some emu eggs for 2024.... long days short years.
It is awesome that Bamboo is better than he used to be about being dominant.
